NEW YORK – November 9, 2011 – Toyota, the most fuel-efficient full line auto manufacturer in the United States today reaffirmed its commitment to sustainability throughout its operations and beyond as it released its 2011 North America Environmental Report. The report details the substantial success that Toyota has had in meeting or exceeding the goals of its aggressive, five-year Environmental Action Plan (EAP).
Among the key achievements outlined in the 2011 report are:
- Major developments in advanced technology vehicles, including the launch of an expanded family of four Prius vehicles, a new partnership with California’s Tesla Motors to produce an electric, zero emission version of the RAV4 crossover SUV, and the opening of the first pipeline-fed hydrogen filling station in the U.S.
- Significant improvements in fuel economy across Toyota’s fleet over the past five years, including a 12% improvement in Corporate Average Fuel Economy (or CAFE standards) for U.S. cars and a 10% improvement in U.S. truck CAFE standards
- Near zero-landfill status at each of Toyota’s North American manufacturing plants as well as a 35% decrease in the amount of nonsaleable waste per vehicle produced
- Expanded local partnerships to improve the environment, including helping towns and counties reduce energy use, donating used plastics that are recycled to fund a local program for the disabled, and working with dealerships and suppliers to build “greener” facilities.

Ardmore Toyota & Central City Toyota participated this past week in handing out coats to children at the West Philadelphia YMCA, which is located just a couple blocks from our Central City Toyota location. We are proud to support the CARing for Kids Foundation and to put a winter coat on a child during these cold months ahead.
The event was a huge success and the children were all so happy to get their new winter jackets.
With the cold weather and snow already here, the children got their winter coats just in time!
Do you know any children at the West Philadelphia YMCA? We would like to hear from you!
Are Your Brakes Talking to You?
Hit the brakes.
Hear anything?
You shouldn’t. Braking noise indicates a problem. Screeching, grinding or pulsating noises can indicate worn brake pads or damaged components. Noise doesn’t always occur when braking, either; a persistent squealing while driving down the road is a warning from your worn brake pads. Visit your service mechanic immediately to keep your brakes safe and responsive.
